Since its official announcement on February 8th, 2009, Dead Rising 2 has had a couple of delays, including one that Capcom informed to the press a few hours ago. The first delay (in December 2009) did not just affect DR2 but also other important games for Capcom such as Super Street Fighter IV and Lost Planet 2 due to avoiding competition to maximize sales [http://xbox360.gamespy.com/articles/105/1057118p1.html]. The previous release date was August 31, 2010. Today, the Capcom USA PR office informed the press of a delay with the following statement:

We are happy to confirm today that one of our most hotly anticipated titles of the Fall, Dead Rising 2, is set for release across North America on September 28, 2010. Sequel to the million plus seller, Dead Rising, and set in the gambling paradise of Fortune City, Dead Rising 2 introduces a new main character, Chuck Greene, and 1000’s of new zombies in this darkly comedic, no holds-barred action title.

The European release date has also been affected. Its release date of September 3rd has been changed to October 1st.
